I wasn't aware of the ammo restriction- that would change things.

In that case, I'd go back to he standard Shield in place of the PC version. Original post edited.

Thanks for the heads up

I’ve shot a wide variety of ammo through my ported Shield, including hundreds of rounds of plated bullets, with no issues. I’ve read that the Shield’s short barrel may not exhibit the issues with plated bullets like longer barrels do. That being said, I no longer buy plated ammo just because of that possibility. There’s plenty of non-plated ammo available so I wouldn’t pass on the PC version. On the other hand the M2.0 Shield is supposed to have as good a trigger as the PC model.

I have never shot a .45 Shield, however my 9mm PC Shield is a joy to shoot. I have read numerous reviews of people praising the .45 Shield.
